Camp Adams is forming an official alumni group! To get involved, visit the Camp Adams website and fill out the alumni group interest form. Submitting the form does not obligate you to participate in or volunteer for anything—it just gets you on the list to receive updates and stay in the loop. Over the next few months, we’ll develop and offer clear pathways to get involved both on the ground at camp and remotely.

Clergy members and church congregants from three states held a mid-day prayer and song vigil in downtown Medford, Oregon on Sunday, September 28, 2025 to express their deep concern with growing polarization, hate, violence and victimization that is traumatizing low-income and marginalized persons across our nation and the world.

We, leaders of the Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ, met September 26-28 onsite in Medford, Oregon, and online October 4, 2025 for our Annual Gathering. We came from Oregon, Idaho, and Washington, from rural, suburban, and urban communities, from large and small churches, comprised of people of many races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, and political affiliations. While here, we learned of President Trump’s plan to deploy federal troops to Portland, authorizing them to use “full force if necessary.” After prayer and discernment, we raise our voices to say no to this deployment.

This resolution calls on the United Church of Christ to stand in solidarity with religious communities, academic researchers, and medical providers throughout the United States and across the globe in demanding that psychedelic and entheogenic plant and fungus-based medicines be decriminalized and made available for further research by scholars and healers for their beneficial and therapeutic capacities.
